| Summary: | Models and researches related to the Sexual Self-Concept from the 21st century are based on a framework developed by Buzwell and Rosenthal (1996), with six defined dimensions subsequently developed. The Sexual Self-Concept represents a complex construct situated on multiple levels, including all conceptions and feelings individuals have regarding themselves as a sexual being (Rye, 2023). My scientific work explores the components, the factors of the Sexual Self-Concept, their relationships with sexual functions, and the interactions between these elements. The models I have analyzed and the research hypotheses I have previously examined suggest that the Sexual Self-Concept has impacts on the sexual functions. The dimensions of the Sexual Self-Concept consist of various magnitudes, and their effects are not entirely clear; however, studies indicate relationships between these dimensions and their influence on sexual functioning. |
